I am disconcerted when I hear that my nations debt is not a problem. Was debt not a problem for Greece, Italy, Spain, Ireland and now Cypress. All of these countries have a similar Socialist bent. There are too many who insist that those who are willing to work and make a living should support those who would prefer to be taken care of. That is the same direction this country is taking. Of course debt is a problem. Debt is a problem whether it is in a household, a business or a government. Anyone who says it is not a problem is either ignorantly uninformed, rationalizing a poor situation, or trying to curry favor with voters. There is no doubt that the U.S. is on a heading similar to those other aforementioned countries. How much of our tax dollars go to paying the interest on our existing debt? Those dollars should be going towards decreasing taxes, or at the least, rebuilding our infra-structure. Please, somebody wake-up and start seeing to the best interests of this country.
